NB: I don't follow or leave comments on blogs run by Google Plus, or DISQUS as I refuse to join something just to leave comments, and I won't allow them to follow new people, update my profile or post tweets 'on my behalf'. I won't comment on any blog that makes me sign in using another account.
I don't generally pay a ton of attention to what is coming out through the year, unless it is books in a series I'm following. I tend to stumble across them on blogs shortly before release! I have managed to put together ten I'm looking forward to buying that were released this year or are still to be published.
1) Dirk Patton-Legion
This is the last in a 19 book apocalypse series and my shelves are a bit relieved! Ironically I've still just read book one, which I loved, so I have a lot to catch up on!
2) Cherie Priest-The Toll
This sounds like an intriguing horror read so I look forward to it.
3) Hunter Shea-Slash
Any new Hunter Shea has to be added to a buy list!
4) Kira Jane Buxton-Hollow Kingdom
The idea of following the adventures of a crow during the apocalypse is just too tempting!
5) Vivian Shaw-Grave Importance
I loved book one in the series so I'll be grabbing the third later this year.
6) London Shah-The Light at the Bottom of the World
I've seen this on a few blogs and it sounds a bit different. I always feel tempted by an apocalypse.
7) Shari Lapena-Someone We Know
I haven't read anything by the author yet but the plots of the books sound so good that I've bought three already!
8) CJ Tudor-The Hiding Place
I really loved The Chalk Man which surprised me based on friend's reviews, so I'm looking forward to reading this one.
9) Tom Bower-Dangerous Hero
I read his book on Simon Cowell and enjoyed it so I will be fascinated to see what he does with Jeremy Corbyn as a subject! I also have his books about Prince Charles and Tony Blair and I'd like to get his Gordon Brown book too.
10) Owen Bennett-Michael Gove, A Man in a Hurry
I can never resist a political biography! This one should be really interesting!
The Toll, Slash and Hollow Kingdom are ones I really want to read. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on The Hiding Place.
ReplyDeleteI haven't bought The Hiding Place in paperback but I'm tempted! I need to see if I put it on my ereader-I'm useless with my memory!
DeleteI need a good apocalypse book in my life. I’ll have to look some of these up.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
My apocalypse books have been a really mixed bag this year! I hope a few good ones are in my future.
DeleteNice. I've got The Toll on my TBR list, but I didn't realize Hunter Shea has a new one coming out. Definitely one to watch for.
ReplyDeleteI haven't loved the last few of his I've read so I hope Ghost Mine and Slash are great reads!
DeleteI'm really bad at keeping up with new releases or what's coming these days. I tend to see books on blogs or on Twitter and then request it from the library.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy all these upcoming titles though.
Karen @ For What It's Worth
I don't really go looking for new releases-I prefer to fall over them once a few reviews have been posted and I know more about it!
DeleteI don't really keep track of most book releases either but I hope you enjoy the books that you do read in the future.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping for a few good ones from this list!
DeleteI'm looking forward to reading The Hiding Place, too. :)
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed we both enjoy it!
DeleteOoh I probably need to get that shari Lapena one- I liked her An Unwanted Guest.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any yet but they all sound so good!
DeleteWait! You bought three books from an author you have never read? That's a lot of faith. I am too cheap for that.
ReplyDeleteOne was in a 3 for £5 offer with two other wishlist books and one was a charity shops so it wasn't too bad!
DeleteI really want to read CJ Tudor. The Chalk Man has been calling my name since it came out. And I've been seeing Hunter Shea's name everywhere lately it seems! Super curious about those books.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed The Chalk Man more than I expected to so I'm excited for this one!
DeleteThe Toll looks like something I'd enjoy. I look forward to your eventual review.
ReplyDeleteThe review might be a long time coming with so many to read!
DeleteNice blend of genres on your list. And I'm the same about Hunter Shea! Reading Slash right now.
ReplyDeleteI'll be interested to see what you think of Slash...
DeleteThe Toll is a book I'm really looking forward to. Hopefully it's as creepy as it sounds!
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
I hope so too!
DeleteI don't stalk new releases either unless it's a book I'm desperate to get my hands on like the next book in a series I love.
ReplyDeleteAll the books I'm excited for coming up are books in series...
I haven't heard of any of these ones but I hope you enjoy them when you get them!
I'm already excited about new books on their way to me...then I need to find time to read them!
